— faq
where are you from? i'm british chinese, grew up in london and currently living in lisbon!!
what did you study and where? i studied classics for 4 years at oxford university & did a term abroad in rome at sapienza university
why did you move to lisbon alone? this video should explain things a bit more:    • PLOT TWIST: i’m now a portuguese resident.  
how can you afford to travel so much? i choose to spend my money on travel and experiences & hope to show on this channel that not only can travel be a lot cheaper than you think, but that it's perfectly possible to work full-time whilst travelling! if i can do it, so can you :)
